TTA invites Worldchoice members to its conference
TTA is making a number of places available for Worldchoice members at its annual conference in London on December 4.
The association said although the event is mainly for TTA members, it will be making a number of places available to Worldchoice members.
The two groups officially merged this week.
Simon Hargreaves, who is now MD of both, said that while it is not a joint event, Worldchoice agents will be welcome.
“It is primarily a TTA member event, but in a big family everyone can learn from each other,” he said.
“At the end of the day we all want to do more business, and that’s what this conference is all about.â€
Under the title ‘The Future in Focus’, a large part of the conference is dedicated to networking and a chance for 23 TTA Business Partners to meet one-to-one with the membership to discuss new products and plans for 2009.
In the opening session, TTA managing director Simon Hargreaves will outline his vision for the association’s future and will unveil a new TTA logo designed to strengthen the association’s image.
TTA founding director Steve Clark and operations director Gary Lewis will explain a number of new developments designed to help TTA members by speeding up business and reducing costs.
